Marianas Trench-Astoria Album Review

Canadian Pop/Rock band Marianas Trench was formed in 2001 from Vancouver, British Columbia. This 4 member band consists of lead vocalist-Josh Ramsay, lead guitarist=Matt Webb, bass guitarist-Mike Ayley, and drummer-Ian Casselman. Currently the band is signed with 604 Cherrytree record label. Let’s talk albums now. First up was the band’s 2002 EP release of “Marianas Trench.” Then came the band’s first debut album entitled “Fix Me” that was released on October, 3, 2006. On Feb, 24, 2009, “Masterpiece Theatre” was released which was the second studio album. November, 11, 2011 was the release of the third studio album “Ever After.”

Some of the popular singles coming from all three of these albums include “Shake Tramp”, ” “Ever After”, “By Now”, “Say Anything”, “Fallout”, and so much more. In 2009, the song “Cross My Heart” was nominated for four MMVA’s. “Ever After went gold within its first week in 2011. Last year the band released their fourth full-length album.

On October, 23, 2015 “Astoria” was released. This 17 track album consists of songs such as “One Love”, “Who Do You Love?”, ” “Wildfire”, “Forget Me Not”,and the self titled track “Astoria” just to name a few. “Astoria’s” dynamic compositions make it different from previous albums because every song brings something different which makes this album unique and one of the reasons I found it way more appealing than the first two albums. The third album was better, but this one takes the cake for sure. I mean I don’t think there’s one song on “Astoria” that you can’t dance too because I’ve been doing it since I started writing this lol. 🙂 In September of 2015 the band announced their “Hey You Guys” U. S. tour which started in November, 2015.
